I don’t believe most of the are dumb, just play dumb because their strengths are in manipulation.
In MTG and Beoberts case (amoung others), there doesn’t seem to be a hidden intelligence, just high school bully tactics of reading the room and saying whatever despicable thing the crowd wants to hear to continue bullying.
I.E., the only discernable skill I’ve seen is how to stay in the clique of mean people and direct their hate to anyone else. Like your stereotypical cheerleader / sorority villian.
Cruz pretended to not understand why we signed the Paris Accord by playing dumb about Paris not being part of America. The guy has an elite education. He just knows his supporters are fucking morons and that they won’t look up anything.
but most are both fucking dumb and slimy assholes.
